I work on a multi platform library so I have to use Xcode, Android Studio and Visual Studio regularly all at once. Android Studio has been the worst for me all this time. The IntelliJ interface is better than Xcode but I swear every time I touch Android Studio there is something new broken. Every single time.

Yeah, Android tooling is generally shite as well.

Say what you want about their shortcomings in other areas (and there are many), but Microsoft has almost always had decent tools and documentation.

Same here and I agree. AS is the one I most fear opening/using. I _love_ IntelliJ, I even have used AppCode to avoid Xcode for fully native stuff but for cross platform stuff my minor use of Xcode is always more pleasant than AS.
